Tim,
I am pretty tall as well and my wife is smaller and shorter than your wife.
From my experience smaller, lighter people tend to slow down much more from heavy packs than bigger guys. Even though this seems to be more of an issue in ski mountaineering where packs are generally heavier.
However, I wouldn’t underestimate the importance of technique and efficiency, also on the uphill. You can “waste” a lot of energy trying to balance out bad kickturns, lifting your skis up by an inches with every step etc. This can really drain even fit guys very quickly.
You mentioned that this is only your second season, so I would probably start looking there.

1.7kg weight difference per foot is quite a lot as well.

Thanks Mark. I understand what you mean. No additional picture necessary. Will try that next time out.

Since the issue with the Suunto strap kept coming back and back I replaced it with a Polar H10 and now HR readings look fine.

Pete, Steve, thanks for your input.
Unfortunately I currently have any access to swimming pools because of Covid.

Thanks Rachel.
I used the average over the first km as the “starting” heart rate.

James,
If you don’t have a TP premium account:
You can upload the workout to Runalyze, which offers a Pa:HR calculation with its free version.

Dada,

I am also using runalyze. The conversion you propose does not work for my data at all. Using this I would totally overestimate the TSS.
From my understanding TRIMP and TSS are different metrics. TSS is power-based, while TRIMP is based on HR. So I suspect there is no one-size fits all conversion.

I’m also using Runalyze to analyze my workouts.
I’ve noticed that Runalyze and TP give different numbers for PA:HR. While for most workouts the difference is <1% I also had some workouts where there was several percent difference.

Paul, thanks. I still have some other straps and will try that.

Thanks Aaron and John for your suggestions.
I will try that. Sounds like a way to work around it.
